Нюша росла в семье музыкантов. Ее папа, Владимир Шурочкин, в начале 90-х пел в группе «Ласковый май», а после начал сольную карьеру. Ирина Александровна Шурочкина, мама будущей певицы, выступала с рок-группой.С раннего детства Нюша не расставалась с микрофоном. С трехлетнего возраста она брала уроки вокала у Виктора Позднякова. Продюсер утверждал, что девочке удалось превосходно развить врожденный музыкальный слух всего за год занятий.В пятилетнем возрасте Аня впервые оказалась в звукозаписывающей студии, где спела «Песенку большой медведицы». Девочка испытала такие насыщенные эмоции от участия в записи, что начала петь везде: дома, в машине с родителями, в деревне у бабушки. Поддерживая ее интерес, отец подарил дочери синтезатор, нанял репетитора сольфеджио и фортепиано. Первую «настоящую» песню Аня записала в 8 лет. Композиция под названием «Night» исполнялась на английском языке. Позже, когда двенадцатилетняя девочка выступила на концерте в Кельне, спев эту и несколько других англоязычных композиций собственного сочинения, слушатели были поражены ее чистейшим произношением без акцента.
Nyusha grew up in a family of musicians. Her father, Vladimir shurochkin, in the early ' 90s sang in the group "Tender may", and after he began a solo career. Kurochkina Irina, mum of the future singer, he performed with the rock band.
From early childhood, I never let go of the microphone. From the age of three she took singing lessons with Victor Pozdnyakov. The producer claimed that she was perfectly able to develop an innate musical ear, only a year of practice.
<span>At the age of five she appeared for the first time in a recording Studio, where she sang "the Song of the great bear". The girl had such intense emotions from participation in the recording that began to sing everywhere: at home, in the car with my parents, in the village with my grandmother. Maintaining her interest, the father gives his daughter the synthesizer, hired a teacher of Sol-FA and piano. First "real" song she has recorded in 8 years. The song entitled "Night" was sung in English. Later, when twelve-year-old girl performed at the concert in Cologne, singing this and a few other English-language compositions of own composition, the audience were amazed at its purest pronunciation with no accent.</span>
